"Cheer up, Marinette," Tikki told Marinette as she tied pink ribbons into her hair. "You studied hard for the math test, so your sure to do well." Marinette gave her a tiny smile. "Yeah, but that doesn't mean math's easy," she answered her Kwami as they went downstairs.

"What's not easy?" Adrien asked, sitting the table, and Marinette squealed, running to give him a hug. "Math, belch." "Your not going to have to worry about it today, Princess. School's canceled because of the snow."

"Yippee, a snow day!" Marinette cheered as her mother set a bowl of oatmeal in front of her. "There's my happy girl. What do you plan to do today?" "Well, I texted Nino and Alya on the way over to have a snowball fight at the park." "Don't you think we have an advantage?" Marinette asked. "I mean, we do have superpowers."

"No need for the suits till patrol, Bugaboo. Not unless a-" Marinette clapped a hand over his mouth

Before he could say the word akuma. She didn't want to jinx it!

"Come on, let's go!"Marinette giggled, watching Adrien tilt his head back, catching snowflakes on his tongue. "Yep, not powdered sugar!"Adrien pulled a face and begin crunching through the snow.

"Starbucks awaits!"

With a warm drink and kisses soon warming them, the couple headed to the park, over to their friends.

"Getting a head start?"Adrien asked, pointing to the small pile of snow balls.

"Loser has to buy Jagged Stone's latest Christmas album,"Marinette challenged, and handshakes occurred.

Soon, Marinette was making snowballs at a rapid pace and Adrien stared at her in wonderment. "How are you so quick at making balls?" "Does the words "Cat" and "singing" ring a bell?" Adrien doused her snow, and she fell to giggling.

"Look, Nino's waving the white flag! Victory!" Marinette cheered. "All I want is dry socks," Adrien

said, mournfully.

"Sounds like a Christmas song!"

The weary snowballers went to Marinette's for hot chocolate, wet but happy and very pleased. Weren't snow days fun?!
